This follows CSAV’s August 2012 decision to suspend booking acceptance from Europe to Iran with immediate effect.” In a June 10 letter sent to UANI by lawyers on behalf of CSAV, South America's largest shipping line confirmed that "CSAV... already decided to cease operations by CSAV owned, operated, or chartered Vessels to Iran ports."
